Today's OneWord: Dietary
"This menu doesn't work for my dietary needs."
I looked up from observing the crushed ice in my glass of water. "What do you mean?"
My wife was making a face, tapping a long fingernail against the laminated menu. "Everything's too greasy, too salty, or too sugary. And half the courses are just different varieties of bread. Unless I want to spend the rest of the evening in bed groaning about the evils of gluten, I may just have to eat the lemon in my drink."
